New York Jets owner Woody Johnson plans to hire former NFL general manager Charley Casserly as a consultant. Casserly was general manager of the Washington Redskins from 1989 to 1999 and held the same position with the Houston Texans from 2002 to 2006.

Casserly was general manager of the Washington Redskins from 1989 to 1999 and held the same position with the Houston Texans from 2002 to 2006. Since leaving the Texans, he spent time as a broadcaster for CBS.

Schefter reports Johnson is ready to bring in Casserly to help him find new leadership for the team.

The jobs of Jets head coach Rex Ryan and John Idzik both are very much in jeopardy and, should the Jets make any changes, Johnson would be ready to move forward with the football expertise and manpower he would need surrounding him.

Ryan's future with the team has been the subject of speculation for much of the season as the team has limped to a 3-12 record. He reportedly found out before the season that Idzik plans to fire him.

Ryan is in his sixth season with the team and has compiled a 44-47 record. After reaching the AFC Championship in each of his first two seasons, the Jets have missed the playoffs the last three years and are eliminated this season.
